I broke my radius in a cycling accident. I’d like to know what nutrition I can take to help speed healing.
Summertime is a common time to experience bone breaks, with our active sports and fun outdoor activities. Breaks can also happen in the winter, such as when we slip and fall on ice.
The best way to improve healing of bone fractures is with a therapeutic magnet. This releases a magnetic frequency that stimulates bone repair. I have seen this myself with patients, and in consultation with an orthopedic surgeon who tried magnets on nonhealing fractures with tremendous success.
Your best nutritional options are to eat good food and take a potent supplement with good amounts of the minerals:
- calcium,
- magnesium,
- zinc,
- biotin
My doctor says I can get all the vitamins and minerals I need from my food. What is your opinion on this?
I used to say the same thing to my patients, back in the days before I studied healthy alternatives. It is the party line of allopathic medicine, although that is starting to change. Here's the bottom line, and I'll follow up with some info on what allopaths are now doing:

I have a question. Do therepeutic magnets help in healing a surgically repaired meniscus? If so, what strength and form should be used?

Rosaly, Magnets emit a frequency in the range of 5 to 15 Hz, which is the healing range of soft tissue, tendons, ligaments, but probably not nerves. I’ve used magnets 400 to 2,000 gauss successfully, so try that range. There are several companies that make therapeutic magnets.
